Here are levelled questions for all topics in the OCR Gateway C5 module. They have been taken from the student book and presented in an easy to use manner, with an included answer document.These are ideal for a home work or plenary. Each file has been set out to maximise the number of question sheets on an A4 piece of paper. Some have fonts large enough to be printed two to a page, should you have limits on printing.If you notice any typos please leave a comment telling me which file and I'll correct and update it.

A three lesson, 78 slide PowerPoint presentation on NMR. There is enough content here for three lessons covering areas:
- introduction to NMR
- solvents
- TMS
- carbon environments
- carbon NMR
- proton NMR
- integration and number of protons
- spin coupling/splitting patterns
There are five accompanying worksheets for students, and a teacher version with answers. There are also NMR chemical shift data sheets that can be printed out for students.
This has been written for the AQA A-Level specification, however, it is easily applicable to a variety of specifications.
A step by step presentation describing the background and calculations behind a redox titration. There is a brief overview about constructing half equations (in relation to potassium permanganate reduction), with a task for students to construct their own for potassium dichromate.
The lesson then covers calculations for working out the percentage iron concentration in a table. The worksheet gives 6 long form questions based around this. There is an answer sheet in the excel document, and a very simple question generator that you can use.
This lesson is aimed at A-Level students, but could potentially be applicable to some high level GCSE groups.
This is a lesson based around the concept of adaptations. Areas covered:
- general and specific adaptations
- surface area to volume ratios
- camel case study
- polar bear case study
- cactus case study
- summary questions
The main tasks include an information hunt, there are a total of 24 cards with information about adaptations for camels/polar bears. These can be placed around the room and students must get up and annotate their diagrams. This is a great active learning task, and I often add rules such as you cannot move the information, and you can only write at your desk (forcing students to memorise small chunks of information).
There is also a 10 mark exam style question that can be used as a plenary or homework. I have made the slides as informative as possible with lots of pictures (image credits within the PowerPoint notes section). For the worksheets I have created separate files for 'paper savers' these try to condense as much on to one A4 sheet (6 diagrams), especially important if you have printing restrictions.
This is a card sort to help students learn words relating to school subjects (20 words in total). This would be a useful task with younger groups or low ability groups. There are three separate files, depending on how you want to present the task.
- The 'teacher copy' shows a grid with all items already matched.
- The 'student version' is a random layout, print this out and give to students. They can then cut out the items and match them, or stick them into their workbooks.
- The 'quick cut' is designed so that you can produce 10 packs of cards quickly and easily using a guillotine. Each page has the same card 10 times over. This allows you to remove words that may not be suitable or needed.
Updated: I just realised that history featured twice, I've corrected this and added music. If you have any suggestions for extra subjects please let me know and I can add them!
A differentiated resource for producing a labelled diagram of a volcano. There are two main versions of this activity, but both of them require the information cards. These can be printed out and placed around the room.
The first version is an all in one A4 sheet that has the diagram and labels that can be cut out and stuck on. This is better suited to lower ability students, they can find out where the parts are by looking at the information around the room.
The second version requires the diagram with no labels. Students have to collect the information from around the room and write it on their diagram. I run this as a memory game, giving students two rules: they can only write on their diagram at their desk, and they cannot move the information sheets.

A tutorial guide for making sankey diagrams. It includes two different worksheets for use as a differentiation stratgey. I used this with a year 7 class of mixed abilities to good success. Notes are included within the powerpoint slides.\n\nKeywords: sankey diagram, energy, transfer, joules, graph.

A 58 slide PowerPoint covering the topic of halogenoalkanes (AKA alkyl halides). The PowerPoint has enough content for three distinct lessons:
1) Naming and Drawing
2) Substitution
3) Elimination
Mechanisms are outlined for each substitution with a small introduction to drawing mechanisms. There is an assumption of basic knowledge of organic chemistry such as nomenclature (alkanes). Each area has an accompanying worksheet with questions for students, there are also answers for the teacher. I have also included a key information summary sheet for each mechanism (ideal as a handout).
This resource is based around the AQA A-Level chemistry specification, however, it should be easily applicable to other specifications.
This is a lesson that teaches students the key parts of sound waves (peak, trough, amplitude, and wavelength). It teaches them how changing the properties of a sound (pitch/volume) changes the shape of the wave. There is also a step by step instruction showing students how they can accurately draw their own waves.
This is a perfect task for low ability or younger groups and a great task as part of a sound topic. I've have used it personally with several classes and they always enjoy producing accurate pieces of work that they are proud of (I have included a sample from one of my SEN students).
